We are frctiuenlly imuircd of how to proscrvo the Dahlia through tho winlor. Our plan is Iho most simplo iinagiuablo. Soon af-tor the occurrence of scvoro frost, we cut oft" the sulks a few inches aliove the surface of the soil, and on a clear day carefully dig them up, label each variety, and oxposo them through the day to dryj Utuii put them in a box which will excludo nils, and place thorn in a dry cellar, perfectly freo from frost. SWEET POTATOE. Tlio sweet potatoe is somowhat difficult to preserve, for seed. In soveral attempts to keep them through the winter we almost totally failed. Recollecting to have Bomo where read that smoke was a great preservative of the sweet potatoe, we last fall paeked in very dry earth a box of them, and placed it in a position free from frost, and exposed to tho influence of smoko. The result was entire success. A few largo ones which we intended to havo soon used were laid on tho top, and covered with a mat: they wore forgotten, and remained there till May perfectly sound. CIIISKSF. CO KM. Mr. G. Thorburn, of Hallett'i Cove, gives tho fol lowing account of tho discovery of a new species of corn, which promises to bo a valuable acquisition to tho country. It is for snlo by G. C. Thorburn, New York, and William Thorburn, Albany, at 35 cents per ear. Some three years ago, merchant in New York, whilo emptying a box of tea, observed therein a few grains of corn. Concluding that corn from China must be something new under our run, he had them planted, so they grew and multiplied. Last spring I received from a worthy friend, a portion of said corn it's a new variety so I gave it tho name of China's fall prolific, or tree corn, as it strikes off in two. three and frequently four branches, in appearance liko a small trco' anil produces an ear at lite head of each branch, whereas the common corn shoots out tho ear from the snlo of ll tttnlk: it crrnwa frnm piuM tn ion fiint hiirh. nroduccs an abundance of fodder, is a lurne white flint twelve row com, and ears from ten to fourteen inches long. I counted six hundred and sixty grains on one car: it was planted on the tOlh of May and had ears fit to boil on the 10th of July. Its pro duct) was much curtailed by the long drought, but notwithstanding 1 counted two thousand one hundred and twenty grains, the product of one stalk; being an increase of two thousand from one. The Dulton which is an excellent corn planted on the same day, on the same field, and receiving tho same quantity of manure, cross ploughing and hoeing, did not Iiroduce one half. 'Iho patch, about two hundred tills, was examined by many respectable) farmers, who all pronounced it something new, and something superior. SELECTION OF PEED WHEAT. RtcHMnNn, Kv. AunusTdh, 1639. To the Editor nf the Franklin Farmer. Sir llavinir derived much valuable information from your interesting paper, 1 feel tho injunction upon me, as an imperfect ipiitl pro out, lo communicate to you the subjoined manner nf selecting seed wheat. Many years ao, nfarmerin this quarter, who cultivated tho same variety nf wheat and in the same manner as did his neighbors, was known to have a yield of a lliifd more to the acre. Upon inquiry as to the cause, tlio unsatisiactory answer was civen " 1 sow barrel seed." Tho neighbors purchased of him their seed wheat, and tho nrsi year had a yield equal to his; but selecting their seed as formerly, llio second and third crops were but little, if any belter, titan was raised bvlheia previous to their purchase of seed. They again purchased, and iheir fourth crop was o-tiiuil to the first, but their fifth and sixlh crops were like their second and third. Mow to solve this ap parent mystery, causeu many a neignnorhnod consul latum and discussion, i no vender si Ibe seed, saw too inviting a prospect to make money by the sale of seed wheat to induco him lo disclose the manner of its preparation, and he struggled to keep it concealed It was ultimately utscovcreu, However, ami was as follows: When you aro ready to get out your wheat, place a barrel or box in your slack yard, open at one end; hoforo yon pass the bundle lo the Ireading floor, give It one or two strokes across the open end ot tho barrel or box, by which, the best matured grains will ahnttcr olf; then winnow and use for seed. Thus selected it will be far nrefentklo to the seed prepared by running il through a course seivo: for it Is known to every observant farmer, that manv of the largest grains of both wheat and rye are unripo or diseased, and yet tltey no not shatter out as easily as those which are perfectly ripo. 1 havo ten acres of iladon corn in full shoot, giving iiroiniso of alverv largo yield to the aero. "llcspectifully, V. C. G. Duns are among (he most profitable appendages to a farm-house of any other snrt of house. Tltey toil with unremitting industry, asking nothing but a full weep of the wing and no monopoly. Every man, whellior in town or country, can keep bees to decided advantage. Dr. Smith of Dostott has an Apiary on liis house-lop, from whence his liltjo winged laborers tntversothenireiglit or ten miles in search of fond. What a delicious banquet they afford, from the rich nectar gathered. Nothing like pure honey in the comb, except, as tho ancients used lo say, the "dew distilled from maiden lips." Its golden hue, unctions consistency, nod lite way in which it el ihnmlcs itself over a tasiiuimis panne, now aeueious t ciiraiige u is, that any man possessing a homestead can forego the filensiiros of a hee-hive. Not merely Ike sweets it af-brds lo sour dispositions and acrid tempers, but Iho pattern to diligenco ihey exhibit, is worth not a little as a stimulus to all In bo frugal and industrious.

Wo heard, some weeks since, that considerable a- larm hasjbeen excited, on the south sido of Kcd river. jn Texas;, in consequence 01 us oetng ascertain that the Mexican government were sending emissaries among the south-western Indian tribes, for the purpose of engaging them in a league to massacre or drivo all tho whito inhabitants from that section of Texas, and that one of those emissaries, (a Mexican officer) had been shot by a friendly Indian, and his sword, epauletto, Journal, and other papers, with his mulr and trapping, carried to the nearest friendly post all which information, together with a copy of the lour- nal, had been sent to the commanding olltcer at f ort Towson but we felt some scruples about noticing the report utttill received in a more tangible shape. We now leant, nowever, Dy an otneer ot mo army, ut-rcct from Fort Gibson, that the same information and Journal had been rocoived, by express, by Gen. Ar- bucklb. commanding that post, who considered it ot so much importance that he immediately ordered two companies of Dragoons, under the command of Capt. Ibbnoii, to fori lowson, wnere mey win act as cir cumstances may require. We also learn, by a gentleman from Hemstead county, that several families residing south of lied ri- vor, have uecn so much alarmed uy the roport, mat they have removed across the river, into this State, and that considerable alarm still existed in most of the settlements south of the river. These reports, beinir corroborated from so many dif ferent and respectable sources, leave us no room to doubt that a deep-laid plan haa been formed by tho Mexican government, to rid llio Texian country oi an its while inhabitants, by employing tho neighboring Indian tribes to aid in driving them olf or massacreing them the bountv oflorcd, bcine a division of all the country they may succeed in depopulating, together with the ellects and properly ot Ute inhabitants among the captives. Hinco tho abovo was written, we havo boon favored with the perusal of a letter from Gen. AumicKLe, addressed to the Governor of this State, together with a copy of the Journal of the Mexican officer alluded to above, and two letters from Texas, one of which is from Dr. A. G. WitiniiT, (who translated llio Journal), dated at Lima, on lied river, 25 miles east of the Fausso Washita, 21st August last, and llio other from a Mr. J. W. Gbeen, written about the same time both detailing some of the operation of the hostile party, and their reasons for apprehending a general war in that quarter. We publish below, the letter of Gen. Abbccble, in which It will be seen, that Capt. Cullins, who has chargo of the ordnanco stores at litis place, has been ordered to furnish such munitions of war as may be re quired for the use of our militia. Our limits only permit us to make the following extracts from Iho other letters: Dr. Wright anys "There Is, at this time, on the head wators of Trinity, and west of it, and on the Sabine, both north and south, various tribes of Indians and Mexican officers prepared for battle, and may be are now committing hostilities. The Dolawarcsare now crossing, it is believed, to join the other tribes Mcxicohas had her officers, since mny last, in actual servico, buying over the Indians both in Texas and the U. S. and they have succeeded. Numbers of Chcro-kecs have passed across Hod river, and have formed a rendezvous at the Cherokee town on the Sabine. You may look for one blow to be struck, that will lay waste ourcountry from Nacogdoches to Fort Gibson, unless an army be in readiness on our frontier immediately," The Mexican officer, he says, was killed by a young man wltotn he had employed as a pilot and interpreter. At the close of his letter, he adds a note to the following effect. That he had just recieved a biter, in Spanish, from Gen. Fclisolo tlio Commandant of the Mexican ., u nrdera hi nflirps. to ofTer tlio en tire country to the Indians, and those who partake in the war, and all goods, chattels, tic, taken, to be held in reserve, and placed in deposit, to be equally distributed at tho closo of tho war; that no time is to be lost in establishing posts to facilitate communications to him, to enable him to send dotiblo forces to the weakest points; to slop al nothing to make one general ruth, and conclude the war at a blow, he does ml care in what tray; and to reserve the families and children as hostages for the government to dispose of at the close of the war. Mr. Green urges, In his letter, that cvory man who can bo mustered, bo dcspatclied immediately to tho frontier, to meet tho Indians. Ho says " wo havo direct information that Capt. Farmer and thirty of his men have been killed on the Sabine, by Iho Indians, within the last three days, lllundless', Lewis', and several other plantations, havo lecn sacked, and their places surrounded, since Saturday, by hostile Indians. The road is completely lined with wagons for the lower prairies." The journal of tho Mexican officer is a brief memoranda of every days', proceedings, from tho 89lli May, to the l'-Jtll August last, noting the dillWeiil Tribes he visited, their feelings and decisions on his propositions for them to Join him, fee., and leaving no dmiht of the errand he was on, and that ho found but little difficulty in persuading the Iudians to accept his invitation to wage a war of extermination of the People of Texas. It does not appear, from any of these papers, that there is any intention to commenco hostilities against tho people of Ibis State; but that would follow as a no-cossary consequence, if ihey proved successful agaiust the Texians. We are glad that General Arbucklehas acted with such promptitude, in despatching a portion of his command to lied liiver, where Ihey may have It in Iheir power to render essential service in protecting lhat frontier from encroachment, and where, also, Ihey may bo employed in preventing any of the Indian tribes residing north of Ked liiver, from joining those smith of that river, in waging war on tho eitiiens of Texas. We presume the Governor will take the necessary steps for having our militia organixed and in readiness lo march to the post of danger, in the event of their services being required but our own impression is, that Ihey will not bo required. The plans of the Mexicans, we think, have been developed sooner than they intended, and, when they find Ihe Texians prepared for them, wo dnuht not lhat they will ah union Iheir project, and withdraw, at least for a lime, within Iheir own limits. Head Quarters, On Dept. W. Division,') Fort Gibson, Sept. Hlh, 1838. J To his Excellency, Sam. C. Kuane, Acting Governor of .'irkanvtsi Sir I herowilh transmit for your information, and that of the people of Arkansas, Ihe inclosed journal of a Mexican officer, and two letters in relation lo the war in Texas, which were forwarded to this post by tho commanding officer at Fort Towson. Intelligence was received, by this night's mail, from Fort Jesun, which proves, beyond a doubt, that a war has actually commenced in lhat country. This information is given, that Ihe inhabitants of Arkansas may bo on the alert, and ready for action; yet il is hoped that our frontier will bo respected. Instructions have been given to Capt. Collins, the ordnance officer at Little liork, to furnish you with such ordnance and ordnance stores as you may require, for Ihe use of the militia of Arkansas, should it be necessary for the inhabitants on tho southern border of your State to embody for their defence, which will probably bo required before a suitable regular force can ho assembled in that quarter. I Bin, sir, your oh't serv't, M. AHUUCKLK, llv't Jlrig, Gen. V, S, J. REMOVAL OF THE POTTAW AT AMIES. Tho following account of ihe gathering of the Pot-tnwnlamit) tribe of Indians for removal furnishes an Interesting picture of frontier scenes. Il Is from the Lo-gansport (Indiana) Telegmph nf Ihe 1 5th ultimo: A small military force left Lognnsport on Wednesday, tho !!!)th August, and having been reinforced ou the route, reached the Indian Chapel on Twin Lakes, in Marshall county, nboutll o'clock on Thursday. Hern tho principal chiefs, with several other Indians, worn found, and surrounded, to prevent their escape GonnralTipton then held n council with ihoso present, ond four chiefs, appearing somewhat refractory, were taken and placed under guard in one of the rooms of the building which hid been nrcupicd its a chapel. The Indians present worn then told tliatlhey must pro- paro to emigrate that in three days they must be ready to go West; that they need not hope to remain ou the lands which thoy occupied, for they would be compelled to leave them. Thoy were further told lhat wagons would be provided to convey their furniture and utensils into camp, to be carried for them to their homes in the Wesf; that their cornfields should he appraised by disinterested persons, and that thoy (the Indians) should receive the amount of their valuation; that tho Government would furnish them with provisions and clothing, and farming utensils for the term of one year from and after their arrival npon the lands assigned to them beyond the Mississippi; that they would not again bo compelled to remove, and that Ihe Government would protect them in their new homes. Tarlics of dragoons were then despatched in different directions, with orders to bring the various bands of Indians into camp. Tlio dragoons wore also ordered to treat the Indians kindly, to pruservo their moveable property, and lo burn their wigwams. These orders were executed in a summary manner, and the business of collecting the Indians progressed with a rapidity which seemed to astonish those who undertook it. Such was the activity displayed, that on Monday, tho 3d of September, there were in the encampment about eight hundred Indians, apparently (with a few exceptions) satisfied with the prospect of immediate emigration. Tho encampment occupied a space about one hundred yards square upon the banks of the Twin Lakes. This area was almost completely filled with Indian tents, ponies, pigs, public officers, dogs, eats, sentinels, wagons, &c. Throughout the wholo proceedings great decision, energy ond activity were displayed, accompanied by very little, if any cruelty thai i8, viewing tho whole as a matter of national policy. Frnm the National Intclliircnecr. PROPOSED INDIAN GOVERNMENT. Ill reply to an esteemed subscriber and correspondent, and for the information of others who may feel an interest in tlio welfare of our Indian Tubes, we now state that tho bill lo cstublUh an Indian Territm ial Government or Confederacy wat of the Afiuimippi underwent consideration m the Senate of tho llnited Slates on the 2(jth, 27th, and 30th of April, and finally passed in that body, without a division, two days afterwards. In the National Iiitelliucncer of April 28th and May lst,the proceedings on Iho bill nro succinctly but fully given. The great object of the bill is distinctly expressed; tho remarks of several Senators are published in brief, and tho first speech of Mr. Tipton, the nutlmr of the bill, answering objections, and illustrating its principal featnres.was published in full. The debato at largo was further published in tho Intelligencer of the Cth and 81 li of September. The main oliicct of the bill was to establish a Con federacy of Indian Tribes, under a General Government, to be framed by the Chiefs of such Tribes as might choose to aid m its formation; to no approved by the President of the United States, and to be binding only on such Tril)C9 as should iitbsequenlly assent te it, by Tribes in council, or by Delegates duly and specifically authorized. 1 he laws, cVc, ol tlio ton-feoVracy were proposed to bo enacted by a General Council, composed of not less than llireo nor more thsit five from each Tribe, to bo chosen as tho Confederacy should direct; said laws to bo of no effect till ap proved by the Suierintendciit, (to be chosen every loir years by the President and Senate of Ihe United Stiles,) nor till approved also oy the i-resiueut oi mo United Stales. Tho bill proposed lo allow the Con federacy to elect, in such manner rrs the President of lie untieu niaies snouiu prescnoe, n Lieieaie, wnu mini be of Indian descent, to rcsideot Washington 4rinor the sessions of Conirress. The bill also pro- 'pssed to establish bb the eonlinuom boundaries of the whole Indian Territory in that quarter, the Puncuh river, thence the Missouri, thence the western boundaries of Missouri and Arkansas, llienco Ihe Ked river, to i direct (perpendicular) distance ol two hundred miles, .wt ,i,nnnn in m .lirert fine to the source of the Puncah. J3y the members of the Senate rrenerally, the bill was greeted in tho strongest and wannest terms of praise and approval, Mr. Cbittenoen declared lhat lie would rather no the author ol this tint, 11 it should be matured into a law, than of any other measure which had been adopted since ho iiad a scat in the Senate." On Ihe test vote there appeared in favor of the bill, yeas 3r), nays 6. (.Y;tt, Messrs. Allen, Denton, llrown, l-alhotin, lles, IVorvcll.) Ihe bill failed for Ihe present in tho ilotiso ofllo- presenlatives: but it failed, as far as we know, only because in the course of business in that Houso it was never reached. It was ono of the many important bills which wero sacrificed to tho determination to adjourn at a particular period, leaving no limo to act upon half the business on llio tallies ol the two Houses.

We nivc the particulars, as far as our information extends. No doubt tlmro have beon many vessels which havo experienced a similar fate, the news of which we will not bo in possession t for some lime. On the "ill inst. a severe gale was experienced at Capo Florida.

'Ihe survivors rescued from the de vouring: ocean were soon visited by a lartro nartv of armed Indians, who spared Iheir lives liecnuso they wero Frenchmen, saying that Ihey only killed Americans. Tho captain nnd Ihe six oilier survivors wero taken from the beach after the galo was over, by a smack from tho North, hound to this place. Tho American brig Alderly, 1 homns, master, from Si.

'lhe hrig bilged in 13 minutes. The sloops Alabama, Dread, nnd I. notion, or Mystic, bound lo this port, drove ashore, and were lost, in the simn gale, llio only survivor yet ascertained is Joseph Noble.

We are frctiuenlly imuircd of how to proscrvo the Dahlia through tho winlor. Our plan is Iho most simplo iinagiuablo. Soon af-tor the occurrence of scvoro frost, we cut oft" the sulks a few inches aliove the surface of the soil, and on a clear day carefully dig them up, label each variety, and oxposo them through the day to dryj Utuii put them in a box which will excludo nils, and place thorn in a dry cellar, perfectly freo from frost. SWEET POTATOE. Tlio sweet potatoe is somowhat difficult to preserve, for seed. In soveral attempts to keep them through the winter we almost totally failed. Recollecting to have Bomo where read that smoke was a great preservative of the sweet potatoe, we last fall paeked in very dry earth a box of them, and placed it in a position free from frost, and exposed to tho influence of smoko. The result was entire success. A few largo ones which we intended to havo soon used were laid on tho top, and covered with a mat: they wore forgotten, and remained there till May perfectly sound. CIIISKSF. CO KM. Mr. G. Thorburn, of Hallett'i Cove, gives tho fol lowing account of tho discovery of a new species of corn, which promises to bo a valuable acquisition to tho country. It is for snlo by G. C. Thorburn, New York, and William Thorburn, Albany, at 35 cents per ear. Some three years ago, merchant in New York, whilo emptying a box of tea, observed therein a few grains of corn. Concluding that corn from China must be something new under our run, he had them planted, so they grew and multiplied. Last spring I received from a worthy friend, a portion of said corn it's a new variety so I gave it tho name of China's fall prolific, or tree corn, as it strikes off in two. three and frequently four branches, in appearance liko a small trco' anil produces an ear at lite head of each branch, whereas the common corn shoots out tho ear from the snlo of ll tttnlk: it crrnwa frnm piuM tn ion fiint hiirh. nroduccs an abundance of fodder, is a lurne white flint twelve row com, and ears from ten to fourteen inches long. I counted six hundred and sixty grains on one car: it was planted on the tOlh of May and had ears fit to boil on the 10th of July. Its pro duct) was much curtailed by the long drought, but notwithstanding 1 counted two thousand one hundred and twenty grains, the product of one stalk; being an increase of two thousand from one. The Dulton which is an excellent corn planted on the same day, on the same field, and receiving tho same quantity of manure, cross ploughing and hoeing, did not Iiroduce one half. 'Iho patch, about two hundred tills, was examined by many respectable) farmers, who all pronounced it something new, and something superior. SELECTION OF PEED WHEAT. RtcHMnNn, Kv. AunusTdh, 1639. To the Editor nf the Franklin Farmer. Sir llavinir derived much valuable information from your interesting paper, 1 feel tho injunction upon me, as an imperfect ipiitl pro out, lo communicate to you the subjoined manner nf selecting seed wheat. Many years ao, nfarmerin this quarter, who cultivated tho same variety nf wheat and in the same manner as did his neighbors, was known to have a yield of a lliifd more to the acre. Upon inquiry as to the cause, tlio unsatisiactory answer was civen " 1 sow barrel seed." Tho neighbors purchased of him their seed wheat, and tho nrsi year had a yield equal to his; but selecting their seed as formerly, llio second and third crops were but little, if any belter, titan was raised bvlheia previous to their purchase of seed. They again purchased, and iheir fourth crop was o-tiiuil to the first, but their fifth and sixlh crops were like their second and third. Mow to solve this ap parent mystery, causeu many a neignnorhnod consul latum and discussion, i no vender si Ibe seed, saw too inviting a prospect to make money by the sale of seed wheat to induco him lo disclose the manner of its preparation, and he struggled to keep it concealed It was ultimately utscovcreu, However, ami was as follows: When you aro ready to get out your wheat, place a barrel or box in your slack yard, open at one end; hoforo yon pass the bundle lo the Ireading floor, give It one or two strokes across the open end ot tho barrel or box, by which, the best matured grains will ahnttcr olf; then winnow and use for seed. Thus selected it will be far nrefentklo to the seed prepared by running il through a course seivo: for it Is known to every observant farmer, that manv of the largest grains of both wheat and rye are unripo or diseased, and yet tltey no not shatter out as easily as those which are perfectly ripo. 1 havo ten acres of iladon corn in full shoot, giving iiroiniso of alverv largo yield to the aero. "llcspectifully, V. C. G. Duns are among (he most profitable appendages to a farm-house of any other snrt of house. Tltey toil with unremitting industry, asking nothing but a full weep of the wing and no monopoly. Every man, whellior in town or country, can keep bees to decided advantage. Dr. Smith of Dostott has an Apiary on liis house-lop, from whence his liltjo winged laborers tntversothenireiglit or ten miles in search of fond. What a delicious banquet they afford, from the rich nectar gathered. Nothing like pure honey in the comb, except, as tho ancients used lo say, the "dew distilled from maiden lips." Its golden hue, unctions consistency, nod lite way in which it el ihnmlcs itself over a tasiiuimis panne, now aeueious t ciiraiige u is, that any man possessing a homestead can forego the filensiiros of a hee-hive. Not merely Ike sweets it af-brds lo sour dispositions and acrid tempers, but Iho pattern to diligenco ihey exhibit, is worth not a little as a stimulus to all In bo frugal and industrious.

Wo heard, some weeks since, that considerable a- larm hasjbeen excited, on the south sido of Kcd river. jn Texas;, in consequence 01 us oetng ascertain that the Mexican government were sending emissaries among the south-western Indian tribes, for the purpose of engaging them in a league to massacre or drivo all tho whito inhabitants from that section of Texas, and that one of those emissaries, (a Mexican officer) had been shot by a friendly Indian, and his sword, epauletto, Journal, and other papers, with his mulr and trapping, carried to the nearest friendly post all which information, together with a copy of the lour- nal, had been sent to the commanding olltcer at f ort Towson but we felt some scruples about noticing the report utttill received in a more tangible shape. We now leant, nowever, Dy an otneer ot mo army, ut-rcct from Fort Gibson, that the same information and Journal had been rocoived, by express, by Gen. Ar- bucklb. commanding that post, who considered it ot so much importance that he immediately ordered two companies of Dragoons, under the command of Capt. Ibbnoii, to fori lowson, wnere mey win act as cir cumstances may require. We also learn, by a gentleman from Hemstead county, that several families residing south of lied ri- vor, have uecn so much alarmed uy the roport, mat they have removed across the river, into this State, and that considerable alarm still existed in most of the settlements south of the river. These reports, beinir corroborated from so many dif ferent and respectable sources, leave us no room to doubt that a deep-laid plan haa been formed by tho Mexican government, to rid llio Texian country oi an its while inhabitants, by employing tho neighboring Indian tribes to aid in driving them olf or massacreing them the bountv oflorcd, bcine a division of all the country they may succeed in depopulating, together with the ellects and properly ot Ute inhabitants among the captives. Hinco tho abovo was written, we havo boon favored with the perusal of a letter from Gen. AumicKLe, addressed to the Governor of this State, together with a copy of the Journal of the Mexican officer alluded to above, and two letters from Texas, one of which is from Dr. A. G. WitiniiT, (who translated llio Journal), dated at Lima, on lied river, 25 miles east of the Fausso Washita, 21st August last, and llio other from a Mr. J. W. Gbeen, written about the same time both detailing some of the operation of the hostile party, and their reasons for apprehending a general war in that quarter. We publish below, the letter of Gen. Abbccble, in which It will be seen, that Capt. Cullins, who has chargo of the ordnanco stores at litis place, has been ordered to furnish such munitions of war as may be re quired for the use of our militia. Our limits only permit us to make the following extracts from Iho other letters: Dr. Wright anys "There Is, at this time, on the head wators of Trinity, and west of it, and on the Sabine, both north and south, various tribes of Indians and Mexican officers prepared for battle, and may be are now committing hostilities. The Dolawarcsare now crossing, it is believed, to join the other tribes Mcxicohas had her officers, since mny last, in actual servico, buying over the Indians both in Texas and the U. S. and they have succeeded. Numbers of Chcro-kecs have passed across Hod river, and have formed a rendezvous at the Cherokee town on the Sabine. You may look for one blow to be struck, that will lay waste ourcountry from Nacogdoches to Fort Gibson, unless an army be in readiness on our frontier immediately," The Mexican officer, he says, was killed by a young man wltotn he had employed as a pilot and interpreter. At the close of his letter, he adds a note to the following effect. That he had just recieved a biter, in Spanish, from Gen. Fclisolo tlio Commandant of the Mexican ., u nrdera hi nflirps. to ofTer tlio en tire country to the Indians, and those who partake in the war, and all goods, chattels, tic, taken, to be held in reserve, and placed in deposit, to be equally distributed at tho closo of tho war; that no time is to be lost in establishing posts to facilitate communications to him, to enable him to send dotiblo forces to the weakest points; to slop al nothing to make one general ruth, and conclude the war at a blow, he does ml care in what tray; and to reserve the families and children as hostages for the government to dispose of at the close of the war. Mr. Green urges, In his letter, that cvory man who can bo mustered, bo dcspatclied immediately to tho frontier, to meet tho Indians. Ho says " wo havo direct information that Capt. Farmer and thirty of his men have been killed on the Sabine, by Iho Indians, within the last three days, lllundless', Lewis', and several other plantations, havo lecn sacked, and their places surrounded, since Saturday, by hostile Indians. The road is completely lined with wagons for the lower prairies." The journal of tho Mexican officer is a brief memoranda of every days', proceedings, from tho 89lli May, to the l'-Jtll August last, noting the dillWeiil Tribes he visited, their feelings and decisions on his propositions for them to Join him, fee., and leaving no dmiht of the errand he was on, and that ho found but little difficulty in persuading the Iudians to accept his invitation to wage a war of extermination of the People of Texas. It does not appear, from any of these papers, that there is any intention to commenco hostilities against tho people of Ibis State; but that would follow as a no-cossary consequence, if ihey proved successful agaiust the Texians. We are glad that General Arbucklehas acted with such promptitude, in despatching a portion of his command to lied liiver, where Ihey may have It in Iheir power to render essential service in protecting lhat frontier from encroachment, and where, also, Ihey may bo employed in preventing any of the Indian tribes residing north of Ked liiver, from joining those smith of that river, in waging war on tho eitiiens of Texas. We presume the Governor will take the necessary steps for having our militia organixed and in readiness lo march to the post of danger, in the event of their services being required but our own impression is, that Ihey will not bo required. The plans of the Mexicans, we think, have been developed sooner than they intended, and, when they find Ihe Texians prepared for them, wo dnuht not lhat they will ah union Iheir project, and withdraw, at least for a lime, within Iheir own limits. Head Quarters, On Dept. W. Division,') Fort Gibson, Sept. Hlh, 1838. J To his Excellency, Sam. C. Kuane, Acting Governor of .'irkanvtsi Sir I herowilh transmit for your information, and that of the people of Arkansas, Ihe inclosed journal of a Mexican officer, and two letters in relation lo the war in Texas, which were forwarded to this post by tho commanding officer at Fort Towson. Intelligence was received, by this night's mail, from Fort Jesun, which proves, beyond a doubt, that a war has actually commenced in lhat country. This information is given, that Ihe inhabitants of Arkansas may bo on the alert, and ready for action; yet il is hoped that our frontier will bo respected. Instructions have been given to Capt. Collins, the ordnance officer at Little liork, to furnish you with such ordnance and ordnance stores as you may require, for Ihe use of the militia of Arkansas, should it be necessary for the inhabitants on tho southern border of your State to embody for their defence, which will probably bo required before a suitable regular force can ho assembled in that quarter.

Tho following account of ihe gathering of the Pot-tnwnlamit) tribe of Indians for removal furnishes an Interesting picture of frontier scenes. Il Is from the Lo-gansport (Indiana) Telegmph nf Ihe 1 5th ultimo: A small military force left Lognnsport on Wednesday, tho !!!)th August, and having been reinforced ou the route, reached the Indian Chapel on Twin Lakes, in Marshall county, nboutll o'clock on Thursday. Hern tho principal chiefs, with several other Indians, worn found, and surrounded, to prevent their escape GonnralTipton then held n council with ihoso present, ond four chiefs, appearing somewhat refractory, were taken and placed under guard in one of the rooms of the building which hid been nrcupicd its a chapel. The Indians present worn then told tliatlhey must pro- paro to emigrate that in three days they must be ready to go West; that they need not hope to remain ou the lands which thoy occupied, for they would be compelled to leave them. Thoy were further told lhat wagons would be provided to convey their furniture and utensils into camp, to be carried for them to their homes in the Wesf; that their cornfields should he appraised by disinterested persons, and that thoy (the Indians) should receive the amount of their valuation; that tho Government would furnish them with provisions and clothing, and farming utensils for the term of one year from and after their arrival npon the lands assigned to them beyond the Mississippi; that they would not again bo compelled to remove, and that Ihe Government would protect them in their new homes. Tarlics of dragoons were then despatched in different directions, with orders to bring the various bands of Indians into camp. Tlio dragoons wore also ordered to treat the Indians kindly, to pruservo their moveable property, and lo burn their wigwams. These orders were executed in a summary manner, and the business of collecting the Indians progressed with a rapidity which seemed to astonish those who undertook it. Such was the activity displayed, that on Monday, tho 3d of September, there were in the encampment about eight hundred Indians, apparently (with a few exceptions) satisfied with the prospect of immediate emigration. Tho encampment occupied a space about one hundred yards square upon the banks of the Twin Lakes. This area was almost completely filled with Indian tents, ponies, pigs, public officers, dogs, eats, sentinels, wagons, &c. Throughout the wholo proceedings great decision, energy ond activity were displayed, accompanied by very little, if any cruelty thai i8, viewing tho whole as a matter of national policy. Frnm the National Intclliircnecr. PROPOSED INDIAN GOVERNMENT. Ill reply to an esteemed subscriber and correspondent, and for the information of others who may feel an interest in tlio welfare of our Indian Tubes, we now state that tho bill lo cstublUh an Indian Territm ial Government or Confederacy wat of the Afiuimippi underwent consideration m the Senate of tho llnited Slates on the 2(jth, 27th, and 30th of April, and finally passed in that body, without a division, two days afterwards. In the National Iiitelliucncer of April 28th and May lst,the proceedings on Iho bill nro succinctly but fully given. The great object of the bill is distinctly expressed; tho remarks of several Senators are published in brief, and tho first speech of Mr. Tipton, the nutlmr of the bill, answering objections, and illustrating its principal featnres.was published in full. The debato at largo was further published in tho Intelligencer of the Cth and 81 li of September. The main oliicct of the bill was to establish a Con federacy of Indian Tribes, under a General Government, to be framed by the Chiefs of such Tribes as might choose to aid m its formation; to no approved by the President of the United States, and to be binding only on such Tril)C9 as should iitbsequenlly assent te it, by Tribes in council, or by Delegates duly and specifically authorized. 1 he laws, cVc, ol tlio ton-feoVracy were proposed to bo enacted by a General Council, composed of not less than llireo nor more thsit five from each Tribe, to bo chosen as tho Confederacy should direct; said laws to bo of no effect till ap proved by the Suierintendciit, (to be chosen every loir years by the President and Senate of Ihe United Stiles,) nor till approved also oy the i-resiueut oi mo United Stales. Tho bill proposed lo allow the Con federacy to elect, in such manner rrs the President of lie untieu niaies snouiu prescnoe, n Lieieaie, wnu mini be of Indian descent, to rcsideot Washington 4rinor the sessions of Conirress. The bill also pro- 'pssed to establish bb the eonlinuom boundaries of the whole Indian Territory in that quarter, the Puncuh river, thence the Missouri, thence the western boundaries of Missouri and Arkansas, llienco Ihe Ked river, to i direct (perpendicular) distance ol two hundred miles, .wt ,i,nnnn in m .lirert fine to the source of the Puncah. J3y the members of the Senate rrenerally, the bill was greeted in tho strongest and wannest terms of praise and approval, Mr. Cbittenoen declared lhat lie would rather no the author ol this tint, 11 it should be matured into a law, than of any other measure which had been adopted since ho iiad a scat in the Senate." On Ihe test vote there appeared in favor of the bill, yeas 3r), nays 6. (.Y;tt, Messrs. Allen, Denton, llrown, l-alhotin, lles, IVorvcll.) Ihe bill failed for Ihe present in tho ilotiso ofllo- presenlatives: but it failed, as far as we know, only because in the course of business in that Houso it was never reached. It was ono of the many important bills which wero sacrificed to tho determination to adjourn at a particular period, leaving no limo to act upon half the business on llio tallies ol the two Houses.

No doubt tlmro have beon many vessels which havo experienced a similar fate, the news of which we will not bo in possession t for some lime. On the "ill inst. a severe gale was experienced at Capo Florida.

'lhe hrig bilged in 13 minutes. The sloops Alabama, Dread, nnd I. notion, or Mystic, bound lo this port, drove ashore, and were lost, in the simn gale, llio only survivor yet ascertained is Joseph Noble.
